I did *not* tell him how to deal with the situation, in fact I expressed my 
sympathy with his predicament and told him i would like him to know how 
valuable I had found Civileme's assistance to be and how much I thought 
people on these lists would miss him. I hardly think that justifies an 
impolite response.

I must admit that I've never been too clear about Mandrakes commercial 
strategy and would not see it as my place to tell them how to run the 
business. but I'm damn sure that I am a customer and that it is businesses 
who value and delight their customers that succeed. The Mandrake distro is 
first class IMHO but my experience of and what I read about their customer 
care leaves something to be desired. I hope for their sake as well as ours 
that they can get their act together on this.
